Unable to view all photos in version 8.1.2. Can only see last 18 month.

Unable to view ALL photos in V 8.1.2  Only able to view past 18 months.

Wild guess:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • What happened to the option to see all your purchased movies alphabetically?  I can only see recent purchases and then I have to look by movie type.  With over 500 movies purchased this is a huge pain.

    What happened to the option to see all your purchased movies alphabetically?  I can only see recent purchases and then I have to look by movie type.  With over 500 movies purchased, this is a huge pain.  For instance the movie Airport 77 is classified as Drama not action?  But it is action?  I have to look at both types to find the film.  I will stop buying films via AppleTV if this is the way it is going to stay.  I am not searching for films in this crazy manner.

    Same issue here. Might have to do with size of library. I too have over 300 purchased movies. "ALL PURCHASED" folder disappeared yesterday on all my AppleTV's. My son only has 20+ purchased movies and his still shows "ALL" folder. However, I had him log in under my account and "ALL" folder is missing??? I hope Apple gets this resolved quickly. I too do not want to flip through various Genres looking for movies.

  • HT1692 I have my calendar sync set to "all events" but I can only see 4 months back, the rest is blank.

    I need to be able to see last years calendar entries. The setting is already set to "all Events".   Still I can only see 4 months back?

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • Unable to view all photos in Aperture library

    Only the last upload of photos are viewable.  Photos are on a Lacie external HD as is Aperture.  It does list the 407 Projects, 39512 photos but thumbnails of the events are blank.  I checked the Photo Filter and all boxes are unchecked.
    Any suggestions?
    Very nervous...... : (

    Please tell us more, so we can get a clear picture:
    What is your Aperture version?
    Photos are on a Lacie external HD as is Aperture.
    Do you mean you have a referenced library, and the referenced originals are on your Lacie drive? Or is your library managed and the whole library is on the external?
    Does  "as is Aperture" mean, that your Aperture application is also on the external?
    How is your external drive formatted and how is it connected?
    39512 photos but thumbnails of the events are blank.
    In what way "blank" - do you see dashed outlines, or are they black?
    Are your original image files raw or in another image format?
    Do you have a current backup of your Lacie drive?
    Regards

  • I have photos on my iPad that I can only see in slideshow. How can I get rid of them?

    I can't update my iPad because these photos are taking up a lot of space. I think we're accidentally synced in through iTunes but I can't see them in my photos on the iPad or even when I look at my photos from my iPad on the computer. They can only be seen in slideshow

    Hello there, Caroline.Mitchell.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps for removing photos from your device:
    iTunes: Syncing photos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    Depending where the photos in question are located, the following steps should prove valuable:
    To delete synced photos and videos from your device
    In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
    Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
    Click Apply.
    To delete Camera Roll photos and videos from your device
    There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
    Import the Camera Roll to your computer and choose to delete items after import.
    Delete photos and videos from your device manually:
    Open the Photos application and open the Camera Roll.
    Tap the Action button.
    Tap each photo to select it.
    Tap the Delete button.
    Note: For photos and videos you want to save, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Unable to view recent photos on my Mac in PSE 11 organizer

    unable to view recent photos on my Mac in PSE 11 organizer ..I see them in Iphoto not organizer..Please help

    On import, iPhoto copies photos into its library, which is proprietary to itself and should never be poked and prodded from outside iphoto or you run a strong risk of corrupting the library and losing your photos. So you eventually need to choose between iphoto and organizer.
    If you want to use iphoto, then you have two choices:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto to PSE, edit them, then save without changing the name or format (you may need to adjust the pse preferences>saving files>on first save), and iphoto will remember your last edits and the orginal. However, you must to lose the edited version to use the original again, and this method doesn't work well with raw files.
    2. Export the photos from iphoto to the desktop, user File>Open in the editor,  edit the photos, make all the changes to name and format that you like, save the photos and import them back to iphoto as new files.
    Or if you decide you prefer organizer, set the this iphoto preference to No Application and you can call up the photo downloader from within organizer, or just drag the photo with the images in it from the card to wherever you want to keept them:
    and of course you don't need to user either iphoto or organizer unless you want.

  • Newbie Question- unable to view certain photos in iPhoto 6

    First time Mac user..just got my MBP.
    I created folders and albums under iPhoto. I then copied .JPGs from my shared Windows drive directly into the albums. They get imported correctly because I can see all the pictures in the "gallery" view. However, when I click certain individual pictures, I get a outlined grey box with an exclamation in the middle. This happens with about half the photos. I can't seem to view them.
    However, when I go through Finder, I am able to double click on the same photos and view them using Preview. Full size.
    Anyone know why I am unable to view certain photos in iPhoto but am able to view everything in Preview?
    Any help is appreciated..
    Thanks!

  • How can I view all photos from a specific year?

    How can I view all photos taken in one calendar year like 2010? Is there a way to filter this way?

    Yes, create a smart album or a search with a "Date" rule or a Calendar rule.
    For example: New > Smart Album
    Add Rule:  Date
         Capture year is 2010.
    or: Add Rule: Calendar
    and click-step  the year back to 2010:
    In the Calendar it is a bit cumbersom to select a whole year, because it will only show 3 month at once. Select the first day and then scroll to to the end oft the year.

  • Want to view all photos in an Event, at once

    I want to view all photos, from an Event, at once without scrolling down. When we got this, I remember looking at all photos together. Now, if I want to click and drag to another page or to iMovie, it wont let me. I can't put in trash either. Is it possible to view all to decide which photos to put on a video/movie? I am frustrated with this and have searched help topics and so on.

    Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
    It sounds like you may have changed the display to show a single photo - look in the lower right hand corner of the iPhoto display and slide the little slider there to the left to show more (smaller) photos in the display

  • I am unable to download all photos to computer.  At a certain photo I get the following message:  IPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image.  How can I go around this  image

    I am unable to import all photos to IPhoto on computer.  At a certain photo the following message appears:  IPhoto cannot import your photos
    because there was a problem downloading an image.  How can I circumvent this particular image and import all other photos?

    I'm having the same issue.  i have imported everything but the offending photo from my iPhone.  problem is, with over 5000 pics, i have no idea how to find THAT ONE pic that won't import (bc I just get a greyed out pic image - with no data in iPhoto)
    any idea how to get "date taken" info of THAT ONE pic out of iPhoto (or any metadata) so I don't have to search 3 years of pictures?
    and I do apologize for hijacking.
